All Chapters of Dumped Yesterday, Owned by My ex's Mafia Uncle Today: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

[Elena's POV]"Don't stop," Noah rasped from the shadows.My heart stopped. My hand froze between my thighs.I couldn't breathe.Noah stepped fully into the moonlight.He was still wearing his dark trousers and a crisp white shirt, the top buttons undone. He didn't look like a man who had just come from another woman's bed. He looked like a predator who had just found his favorite prey."N-Noah," I stuttered, my face burning with a heat that had nothing to do with fever. I scrambled backward on the bed, pulling the silk sheet up to cover my breasts and my exposed legs. "What are you doing here?""Watching," he said simply. He walked to the edge of the bed and looked down at me. His blue eyes were pitch black. "You were calling my name. It would be rude of me not to answer."I wanted the floor to open up and swallow me. He saw me. He heard me."I... I was just..." I couldn't finish the sentence.Noah tilted his head. "Just what? Touching yourself while picturing me?" He smirked, a crue

[Elena's POV]The hot soup burned the back of my hand, but I barely felt it.I slowly picked up the spoon with shaking fingers and placed it on the tray. I looked up at Caleb."How?" my voice was totally flat. Empty."Drug overdose," Caleb said gently. He didn't look away. "The police found him this morning. He was lying on the sofa in your apartment."I just stared at him. I couldn't process the words. My father had died alone in the apartment my mother and I shared."The Boss gave you the day off," Caleb continued, his voice steady and calm. "He told me to drive you to your apartment. To pack whatever you need and handle things. The car is waiting outside."Noah's arrangements were considerate.But I just nodded numbly. "Okay."The drive to Brooklyn was a blur.I sat in the backseat of the black SUV, watching the city buildings pass by, feeling absolutely nothing.I thought I would be crying because he was my Dad.I thought I would be angry because he just left like that, without ev

[Elena's POV]"You didn't tell me you were the boss of the Iron Vultures," I said.Adrian froze. The anger on his face vanished, replaced by pure shock. He stared at me as if I had just grown a second head."How did you figure that out?" he asked, his voice dropping to a harsh whisper."It wasn't that hard," I said bitterly. "You chased us down the highway. You kidnapped his nephew. You used your middle name to leave me that message. Jake told me the name of Vultures' leader was Ryan. Add that to the fake Swiss investor act... it all makes sense."Adrian ran a hand roughly over his face. He looked tired. "Damn it. Not even Nicole knows about this."The mention of her name sent a fresh wave of panic through my chest."Where is she?" I demanded, taking a step toward him. "Where is Nicole?"Adrian looked away. He couldn't meet my eyes. "I am sorry, El. I really am. I never wanted to drag you into my gang's mess. But things got out of hand. I have to put the Iron Vultures first. I am thei

[Elena's POV]Caleb didn't even blink. He stood between me and Jessica, his face completely blank."The Boss requested Miss Campbell's presence for official business," Caleb said, his voice flat and professional.Jessica let out a loud, ugly laugh. It echoed across the marble lobby."Business?" she shrieked. "Since when does a bed toy have corporate business with the CEO of Marlowe Enterprises? What, is she going to give him a presentation under his desk?"My face burned. I could feel the eyes of the security guards, the receptionist, and the passing employees turning toward us.They were all staring at me, whispering. The humiliation washed over me, hot and suffocating. I had just experienced too much today today. I didn't have the energy for this rich girl's high school drama.But I wasn't going to just stand there and take it.I took a step around Caleb, looking Jessica right in the eye."At least he actually asked to see me," I said, keeping my voice steady. "I didn't have to show

[Elena's POV]I wanted to tell him the truth. Right there, with my face buried in his chest and his arms wrapped tight around me.Adrian is my brother. The words were right on the tip of my tongue. But I swallowed them down hard.If I gave Noah his real name, his security team would find out everything. They would link Adrian Campbell to the Iron Vultures sooner or later.Noah wouldn't see a sister trying to protect her brother. He would just see a spy working for his worst enemy.I just had to find that cargo file. I could change the shipping times, mess up the route numbers, and give Adrian the fake data. That way, nobody dies. Noah's shipments stay safe, and Adrian gets what he wants so he leaves my mom and Nicole alone."Please, Noah. Just... please believe me." I whispered again into his shirt.Noah's large hands gripped my waist tighter. He pulled back just enough to look at my face. His blue eyes were pitch black, swimming with a dangerous, heavy heat that made my stomach flip c
